When citing a core facility, please ensure that you are referrencing their Research
Resource Identifier (RRID) number, and funding source. A citation example for the
Cryo-EM facility is provided below:
"Funding for the Montana State University Cryo-EM Core Facility (RRID:SCR_026324)
was contributed by National Science Foundation (DBI-1828765), the MJ Murdock Charitable
Trust, the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (P30GM140963 and P20GM162003)
and the MSU Office of Research, Economic Development and Graduate Education."
If users work closely with a member of facility staff on a project, they are expected
to be viewed as collaborators. Please include them in attributions, and in relevant
project meetings.
